Summary

Bradford Torrey's 'A Florida Sketch-Book' is a captivating exploration of the flora, fauna, and landscapes of Florida. Written in a descriptive and insightful style, Torrey paints vivid pictures of the beauty and wonder of this unique region. The book's literary context lies within the tradition of nineteenth-century nature writing, showcasing Torrey's keen observations and poetic prose. He expertly weaves together scientific knowledge with a deep appreciation for the natural world, making this book a delightful read for nature lovers and enthusiasts alike. Bradford Torrey, a prominent naturalist and essayist, was inspired to write 'A Florida Sketch-Book' by his extensive travels through the state. His background in ornithology and love for exploring the outdoors shines through in this work, as he shares with readers his passion for wildlife and conservation. Torrey's profound connection to nature is evident in his eloquent writings, making him a respected figure in the field. I highly recommend 'A Florida Sketch-Book' to anyone interested in nature writing, environmental literature, or the beauty of Florida. Torrey's detailed observations and lyrical prose offer a rich and immersive reading experience that will leave readers with a newfound appreciation for the natural world.

    This Second Edition of Transform Your Life And Save The World was published in 2019 and amended in 2021. The book is supported by a very informative website at www.humancondition.com 
The world is in crisis! What is the solution? Ultimately, we have to find the redeeming, and thus transforming, understanding of our psychologically troubled human condition. And it is precisely that dreamed-of insight, and its now desperately needed transformation of our lives, that Australian biologist Jeremy Griffith presents in this book. 
Titled Transform Your Life And Save The World - Through The Dreamed Of Arrival Of The Rehabilitating Biological Explanation Of The Human Condition, this book is a very short but powerful condensation of Griffith’s definitive treatise of the human condition that is presented in his book FREEDOM: The End Of The Human Condition. 
The genesis of Transform Your Life And Save The World lay in Griffith’s address at the June 2016 launch of FREEDOM at the Royal Geographical Society in London. Commencing with very brief extracts from Tim Macartney-Snape’s Introduction at the launch, and Sir Bob Geldof’s keynote address, it goes on to summarise FREEDOM’s content in 3 powerful chapters: ‘The Dishonest Biology’, ‘The Truthful Biology’, and ‘The Resulting Transformation Of The Human Race’. 
As Professor Harry Prosen, a former President of the Canadian Psychiatric Association, has said, “I have no doubt this biological explanation of the human condition is the holy grail of insight we have sought for the psychological rehabilitation of the human race.”
